My quest to create a simple, beautiful life that nurtures my family as well as the earth.

wedding pottery

The big day is almost here. My sister gets married in Mexico in less than a week! Since we couldn’t be there I wanted to do something special for her. I made these little bud vases for her to use as her table decorations and for her guests to take home as favors. Considering I haven’t made any ceramics in over five years, I would say the project was successful. Esme “helped” me glaze them. I had less than an hour to glaze them and then drive them back to the kiln, so no choice but to do it with her. It was an interesting experience. The main goal was to get them glazed and away from her as quickly as possible. She left a few fingerprint and smudges in the pots, we will just call those memories, how sweet.
